<h2 id="weekend-runs---the-long-easy-run.">Weekend runs - The long easy run.</h2>
<p>You will find much benefit from doing a long easy run once per week. The important aspect of this run is the amount of time you put in. The benefits start to kick in after one hour. If you have not been doing these for a while, make the fist one about 1 hour and extend the time in the following weeks. Limit the week to week increases to 10%. Once you have progressed to 1 1/2 hours, you can add in some moderate intervals or just continue to add more time to the run. Make sure you take along water and energy snacks.</p>
<h2 id="alternate-run-days-or-cross-training">Alternate run days or cross training</h2>
<p>If you want to run more than 3 days a week, do treat the extra runs as recovery runs. You should be able to converse easily during these.<br/>
Consider doing strength training. There are many routines designed for runners. Cycling, hiking, swimming, yoga, are great cross training activities. Basically, keep as active as possible without hurting yourself.<br/>
